Sunday, August 5, the Disseminating Moon arrives, the square-and-a-half between Sun and Moon inviting us to share our Full Moon illuminations with the world. And what intriguing patterns this Moon offers!
Just as she leaves spiritual, creative, connected Pisces, the Moon finds her sesquiquadrate with the Leo Sun. At that moment, the Moon makes an out-of-sign Grand Trine with Mercury and the North Node in early Leo and Sagittarius––Fire and Water.
These two elements, Fire and Water, are classically incompatible, but )as I've written before), there's an ancient connection known between the two––the intense and inspired creativity of Fire-in-Water.
This is an intense time, as Mercury slows to station direct, as we are in the midst of celebrating the abundance that is the Lughnasadh harvest, and the beautiful fullness of the Moon rides the night sky.
We're being shown that the fiery passions erupting around us, signified in sky patterns filled with Leo and Aries feeding each other, have tremendous potential for creative action.
It's not all about explosions and arguments. We can instead reach deep within ourselves, into the depths of spirit realms, into spaces we may not be sure how to find or even if they exist, for the spark that ignites us.
It's eerie and scary to reach into the depths to find fire. It's a quest not everyone chooses. For those who do, the boon is a level of poetic inspiration we never dreamt of.
Along with the Grand Trine, this Disseminating Moon chart includes three quintiles, unusual aspects of creative inspiration that reach from Sun to Saturn, Sun to North Node, and Ceres to the Moon. The door is open. It's time to step outside our comfort zone.
We each know what draws us on, even as it frightens us. We know where our creative edge is, where the risky part begins. This Moon invites us to step over and see what happens.


Many are born awesome dreamers and artists with the moon in astrology sign Pisces. Often their gifts are inspired in some way.
